The human hand is a complex structure of bones, muscles, ligaments and nerves designed to perform a variety of tasks such as opening a jar, threading a needle and working with tools. Injury to even the smallest part of your hand can hinder the overall function of your hand, sometimes permanently. About 75 percent of industrial accidents resulting in a partial or complete disability involve one or both hands.
About 16 million Americans each year suffer hand injuries serious enough to require emergency care. These injuries are painful, potentially disabling and costly to treat. For industrial accidents, the Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates an average of $6,300 for each hand injury claim.

Most injuries could be prevented by simply taking the time to use some type of hand protection. Safety-minded employers and conscientious do-it-yourselfers know the importance of proper, high-quality gloves that are appropriate to the task. The glove should be tough enough to protect against possible hazards and should fit properly.

However,  many situations exist where a standard glove just doesn’t do the job. In scenarios where the potential for severe impact is high, such as hammering nails, additional protection is required. The HammerGuard is an armor reinforced glove designed to protect your hand in these situations. The armor plating on the HammerGuard protects the index finger, forehand and thumb while still providing the freedom of movement necessary to pick up nails and other tools.
